Youth of the Year

The Washington State Youth of the Year Program is designed to promote and recognize service to Club and community, academic performance and contributions to family and spiritual life. Clubs select a Youth of the Year who compete in their organizations to represent them at the state level. State winners receive a plaque and scholarship, and enter the regional competition. Regional winners receive a $10,000 scholarship and enter a national competition held in Washington, DC. The National Youth of the Year receives an additional $15,000 scholarship and is installed by the President of the United States.
